| Go! Natural Grain-Free 'Endurance' I'm always looking for good foods to add into Jackson's rotation. Today, I had to stall some time and stopped in a local pet boutique and picked up a 1lb bag of Go! Natural Endurance formula, made by Petcurean Pet Food. He loved it! He's currently eating a rotation of Acana Grasslands and Prairie Harvest (but he seems to like Grasslands better) so I think I'm gonna now rotate between Grasslands and Go! He's pretty picky and generally always likes a food the best on the 1st day so we will see how he likes this food over the next few days but today he gobbled it up FAST (just the dry... not even wet food mixed in, which I usually do for him). I just wanted to let you all know about it because I haven't really heard many reviews on this food (they make the Now! and Go! lines, some are grainfree, some are not). It's a Canadian company. I really the meat content of the food, I bolded! Here are the ingredients: Go Natural Grain Free Dog Food Turkey Meal, Chicken Meal, de-boned Chicken, Russett Potato, Chicken Fat (preserved with mixed tocopherols (vit. E), Whole Dried Egg, Salmon Meal, Apple, Peas, Natural Flavour, Tomato Pomace, Duck Meal, Salmon Oil, Flax Seed Oil, Yeast Extract, Potassium Chloride, Taurine, Choline Chloride, Pumpkin, Carrots, Bananas, Blueberries, Cranberries, Lentil Beans, Broccoli, Spinach, Cottage Cheese, Alfalfa Sprouts, Chicory Extract, Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Lactobacillus Casei, Enterococcus Faecium, Bifido-bacterium Thermophilum, dried Aspergillus Niger Fermentation Extract, dried Aspergillus Oryzae Fermentation Extract, Vitamins (vit. E, vit. C, niacin, inositol, vit. A, thiamine mononitrate, d-calcium pantothenate, pyridoxine hydrochloride, riboflavin, beta-carotene, vit. D3, folic acid, biotin, vit. B12), Minerals (zinc proteinate, copper sulfate, copper proteinate, manganese proteinate, manganous oxide, calcium iodate, sodium selenite), Ascorbyl-polyphosphate, Garlic Powder, Yucca Schidigera Extract, Dried Rosemary. Crude Protein (min) 34% Crude Fat (min) 16% Crude Fiber (max) 4% Moisture (max) 10% Calcium (min) 1.8% Phosphorus (min) 1.2% *Omega 6 Fatty Acids (min) 3% *Omega 3 Fatty Acids (min) 0.5%

| We have a new little speciality pet foods store, I think I will stop in and see if they carry this. Can't hurt trying 1 lb bag. Zhoie tends to eat one food for awhile...then done with that, errrr. I'm sure you already checked out the company and recall history, huh?

| He's liking it a lot! I think our rotation is now going to be Grasslands (Acana) and Endurance (Go!).

| Brit, Lola is eating Now! Grain Free and doing very well on it. Also, have the new guy switched over but he will eat anything. I was planning on adding Acana to the mix in the next few months. May switch completely or do the rotation thing... Glad Jackson is liking the new kibble.

| Bumping up. Jackson ate the full sample bag a while ago and did good on it and seemed to really like the whole time eating it. We never went and bought a bigger bag, but we finished our Acana Grasslands off instead. One thing I noticed while on the sample bag was how great his poos were (ha! if poops can be 'great', right?!?) but I thought maybe coincidence. Well, Jackson ate Go! Endurance last night for dinner, as well as breakfast this morning. His poop last night and this morning was once again perfect (hahah can't believe I'm talking about my dogs poo). But it was so tiny (for him) and I couldn't even smell it. I thought his poop was good on Acana, but it's even 10x better on Go! ha! Just wanted to give a little update. I highly recommend this food. It was a little bit more expensive (I think $18.99 for a 6lb bag, Acana was $14.99 for a 5.5lb bag). But I'm gonna definitely keep up with this food in the rotation. I bought two cans of the Go! as well. I wonder what it is in this food that agrees with him so much?

| Thanks! Are the pieces smaller than Acana? I need to find a smaller food. Mickey swallows the Acana. But he will chew smaller kibble like Wellness Small Breed or Nature's Variety Priaire line.

| Yes, they're significantly smaller. They are like little round pebbles or something. They're probably around the same size as NV Instinct. When I get back home, I can take a pic compared to Acana, lol.

| The small breed formula from the Now! brand touts itself as really helping with tartar control, etc... People have actually commented on how white my dog's teeth are, one even asked if I had their teeth whitened...all this after they had been eating the small breed formula for while. I was skeptical at first but after all the comments I guess it works. |
